Question
Is it possible to have a regular polygon whose exterior angle is: 100°
Advertisements
Solution
Let no. of. sides = n
Each exterior angle = 100°
= `360^circ/"n" = 100^circ`
∴ n = `360^circ/100^circ`
n = `18/5`
Which is not a whole number.
Hence, it is not possible to have a regular polygon whose each exterior angle is 100°.
